GENERAL  LEE. 


AIR— "Ob  1  carry  me  back  to  old  Virginny. 


There  is  a  man  in  Old  Virginny, 
His  name  is  GENERAL  LEE; 
A  scourge  to  every  Yankee  sinner, 
Before  his  sword  they  flee. 

He  is  a  man  about  five  feet  ten, 
A  noble  looking  fellow — 
He  risks  his  life  for  his  country's  good, 
He'll  make  the  Yankees  bellow. 
Chorus— Oh!  take  me  back  to  Old  Virginny, 
My  soldier  for  to  see, 
To  take  him  by  his  gallant  hand, 
The  brave  old  General  Lee. 

There's  not  a  man  in  all  creation 
That  stands  so  bright  and  high, 
In  all  the  peoples'  estimation 
To  make  all  Yankees  fly, 

As  General  LEE  the  great  and  good, 

The  gallant  son  of  the  South 

.Will  feed  the  Yankees  with  powdered  food, 

And  cram  it  down  their  mouth. 
Chorus — Oh  take  me  back,  &c. 

He  is  a  terror  to  all  bad  men, 
A  foe  to  every  vice, 
He'll  miike  the  Yankees  run  away, 
Like  an  array  of  old  gray  mice,^ 

So  here's  long  life  to  General  Lee, 

And  to  the  Southern  braves, 

Heaven  crown  their  efforts  with  success, 

Thev  never  will  be  slaves. 

Chorus — Oh  take  me  back,  &c.
